Casting processes
Green sand casting
Green sand casting is a foundry process using a mixture of sand, clay, water, and additives to create moist molds for metal casting. The mold, formed by packing the mixture around a pattern, is used to shape molten metal into castings. Cost-effective and versatile, it suits various metals and part sizes, commonly used in automotive, machinery, and manufacturing industries.
Investment casting
Investment casting, is a process for producing complex, high-precision metal parts. A wax model is coated with ceramic to create a mold, which is then hardened, melted, and drained of wax. Molten metal is poured into the cavity, and after cooling, the mold is broken away to reveal the part. It is widely used in aerospace, medical, and jewelry industries.
Lost foam casting
Lost foam casting uses a foam pattern coated with refractory material and placed in sand. Molten metal vaporizes the foam, filling the mold cavity to create precise, complex parts with smooth surfaces. It is popular in automotive and aerospace industries.
No bake resin sand casting
No-bake resin sand casting is a foundry process where sand is mixed with a resin binder and hardener to form a mold that hardens at room temperature, eliminating the need for heating. This method offers high dimensional accuracy and smooth surface finishes, making it ideal for creating complex, high-quality metal parts in industries like automotive and aerospace.
Shell mold casting
Shell-mold casting uses a sand-resin shell as the mold, formed around a heated metal pattern. The rigid shell is assembled and filled with molten metal, producing precise, smooth, and detailed parts, widely used in automotive, aerospace, and machinery industries.
CNC Machining
CNC Machining, or Computer Numerical Control Machining, is a manufacturing process in which pre-programmed computer software dictates the movement of factory tools and machinery. This technology enables the precise production of complex shapes and designs, making it widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical, and electronics.
